# 1776 **URL:** **By** David Boaz, Paul Matzko, Timothy Sandefur, Landry Ayres **Published:** August 31, 2022 --- A comedic and consequential chronicle of the Second Continental Congress, complete with a choreographed chorus of cool, cool, considerate men. ## SUMMARY: What’s more faithful to the facts of the founders—_1776_ or _Hamilton_?

And what does the musical many of us had to watch in high school get _wrong_ about American Revolutionary history? All that and more are answered this week, with the help of David Boaz, Paul Matzko, and first time guest Tim Sandefur.
